Commercial Contest Reminder - Win A Free Game!

You are here

First, for those of you missing out on the weekly GWJ Conference Call, not listening to the podcast makes baby Certis cry. No, seriously, it's every night with the sobbing, and I'm tired of it. But, despite that, for those of you tormenting poor baby Certis with your passive agressive ignoring, we think you should know about our podcast contest sponsored by Liongames.com!

All you need do is create a fake videogame commercial, maximum length of thirty seconds, and submit it to [email protected] for your chance to win a free game ($60 US or less) from Liongames.com! The fake ad can be for a real game or your own invention, and your submission can be written, audio recorded or video recorded and posted to YouTube. The winning submission will be broadcast on the weekly GWJ Conference Call and the winner will have a free game to show for it, so put your creative and hilarious ideas to work and make us a commercial for the game you've always wanted.

Submission deadline is April 21st.

Oh, and for those of you who _do_ listen to the podcast, you're the cream filling in the twinkie of my joy.

I intend on using commercial video footage and copyrighted music. It is kind of tied to the nature of the "game".

Is someone going to send me a cease-and-desist letter for advertising a game that doesn't exist ? There is already a ginormous amount of YouTube videos that use pieces of "borrowed" intellectual property for entertainment purposes, be it a background soundtrack or a collection of clips from a show.
